Overview

SOSCIP provides academic researchers from member institutions, including U of T, with access to leading-edge advanced computing technology to foster innovative research and development projects with industry partners. Our projects have strong skills development and commercialization potential and are able to leverage SOSCIP’s advanced computing and big data analytics platforms.  Approved projects will have access to sophisticated computing infrastructure, specialized software, dedicated technology experts and research partnership expertise.

All projects approved for access to SOSCIP’s advanced computing platforms must sign a Project Collaboration Agreement (PCA) and pay a yearly access fee of $2,500 plus HST for each year of a project’s life cycle, prior to the start of the project.
